The dance committee waa composed of Adrienne Wormier, Alma Hall, and Betty Story. Campus Snaps Bac\ After V/ee\ of Initiation Once again life on the campus has settled down to the customary routine procedures, the only breaks in which are to be found in the occasional prox-imity of a fire engine. The hair rib-bons and pillow cases that were so abundant a few days ago have disap-peared. The pole and the skeleton have been returned to dark closets in Students' building; and the goat and the donkey have been returned to their green pastures. Upper classmen can not longer effee-tively enforce their superiority on the freshmen, which is perhaps a good thing, because they have run out of ideas as to how this can lie accom-plished. Then, too. they are so lame from climbing ladders and tacking pathways that they can no longer keep up with the pledges. Sheets are now to be found in the customary places, instead of being all bunched together in unusual places. In fact, the whole campus gives the im-pression of having obeyed the adver-tiser who commands us to "snap back to normal." SCENE OF SKIT LAID IN MOTHER GOOSE LAND Cornelians Entertain Freshmen in Gym Following Formal Initiation in Students. MARY WELLS HAS CHARGE The annual formal initiation of the new members of the Cornelian E was held Monday evening. November 12, at 8:30. o'clock.
